PS3 / PS4
The key change comes when you return to levels with a roster that the story did not let you choose. After Galactus, get the powers that open blocked routes, then combine minikit hunting with Stan Lee rescues and True Believer scores. You can clear Manhattan a district at a time in between.
The PS3 and PS4 editions have 46 trophies with matching requirements. Universe in Peril is a different game and is outside this guide.
- Story: 15 main missions and 11 bonuses.
- Collectibles: 150 minikits, 250 gold bricks and 50 Stan Lee rescues.
- Co-op: One trophy uses two local controllers.
Finish the story through Galactus
Play the fifteen missions through the credits. Pick up studs on the way, but leave silver objects and magnetic switches until you have the right character. When you spot a blocked detour, note the level name so you can recognise where to return in Free Play.
- After the ending, use the menu to check which levels already have True Believer.
Build a roster for minikit routes
Look for ten minikits and the Stan Lee in peril in each main level. Use Iron Man’s explosives on silver, Magneto for magnetic parts and Wolverine at dig spots. Check the results before leaving: a minikit hidden behind a panel can take more than one power to reach.
- Compare the total for each level rather than counting only the pieces from that visit.
Open the Deadpool bonus missions
Bonus missions open at different gold brick thresholds. Return to the map after a batch of levels, find the ones you have unlocked and recover their red bricks. Buy those on the Helicarrier and turn them on in Extras. Getting started early saves time when you buy characters and vehicles and later bank a billion studs.
- For Ultimate True Believer include the eleven bonuses as well as the fifteen main levels.
Clear Manhattan in sections
Work through one district at a time, mixing quests, character tokens, races, rescues and vehicle tasks. If an event is missing, finish nearby events and check the marker again. Stan Lee rescues also come from levels and bonus missions, so the city count alone does not prove you have found all fifty.
- Check the purchase menus: unlocking a token does not always mean you have bought its character.
Use both controllers and check the 100%
Put Captain America and Human Torch in the same party with a second controller for Don’t I Know You?. Return to solo play and check what is left on the overall completion screen. Once you have rescued every Stan Lee, select him and use his transformation for its separate trophy.
- Check the 100% reading, one billion studs and the 26 level scores separately.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the same guide as Universe in Peril?
